challenges challenging-myself different
Creatively I just enjoy challenging myself in different genres.
real believe writing
And I don't know where to find Ashley Danfield and all the other lovely commentators who show me live courtroom trials. To me, you know, I'm obsessed with it. Like I think maybe if I wasn't an actor I'd be a litigator. But, you know, it's always just shocking to see what happens in real life because most of the things that you see on those trials if you tried to write them into a TV series you would say oh gosh, no one would believe that would ever happen. But yet they always do in real life.
mother television-watching dancing
I was always singing and dancing for my mother when I wasn't glued to the television watching I Love Lucy or the Carol Burnett Show.
fun focus stories
You can see with the proliferation of magazines, you know, that just focus entirely on that. So it just - it seems like there (was) a lot of fodder and a lot of stories and fun things to poke fun at and highlight.

I love London. I love England. We were out in the countryside and I had the time of my life
fun long trying
And that's just a terrifying and terrifying thing. And all the photographers and, you know, it's a different, unnatural setting that no one can prepare you for. But, you know, I just try and have as much fun as I can for as long as it lasts because I know it's a privilege.

Court TV. I can't stop watching it. I am absolutely obsessed! If I'm not reading a book or spending time with my husband, my friends or my dog, I am watching Court TV

I know there must be something I should explore about that with my therapist.

Everything has to do with murder.

I would absolutely be a litigator. I watch Court TV every day.
son nursing naps
'Project Runway' was my guilty pleasure while my son was napping or nursing.
keys cash lips
If I have a pocket, then I'll have lip balm, my keys, and $10 cash.
children self-esteem writing
Write hand-written notes daily and commit to supporting the growth and self-esteem of children, because it makes such a big difference in terms of their capacity for learning.
life letting-go believe
When you're passionate about something, you want it to be all it can be. But in the endgame of life, I fundamentally believe the key to happiness is letting go of that idea of perfection.
